wow, thank you so much for this! Job seekers must have the right to transparency! It’s a wholesome idea

The battle between labor and capital is only becoming more tense and adversarial as AI and automation make the hiring process less humane, more optimised, and more algorithmic. Time for a revolution?

it feels to me like the jobs situation in software (but also elsewhere) is going to continue to be somewhat broken. people will be able to submit an all time high volume of applications - likely with automation workflows and ai employers are going to screen all of these applications with yet more automated tooling. it seems like so much of getting jobs is just going to come down to meeting people IRL and networking -- basically derisking that you are interacting with a party that actually wants to participate in the transaction (hiring or looking for work). this tool derisks that the employer is actually serious about hiring, which is for sure a step in the right direction. Im not sure this tool would prevent someone from non-specifically spamming a job listing of an employer with an automated tool, which feels like the other half of this problem. congrats on shipping!

Wow, this is such a needed tool! I’ve been burned by suspicious job postings in the past, so it’s amazing to see something like Ghost Jobs tackling this issue. The idea of accessing company insights and flagging fake listings is a total game-changer—it would’ve saved me so much time and stress during my last job search. Super excited to see where this goes!

Your mission to bring clarity and fairness to job seekers is truly impactful, well done!
